Very sad day, he was one of the best. Pretty sorry to think of what a loss this is.

Terrible, yet another example of the need to pay attention to mental health.

Somewhere, Jesse Ventura is nodding approvingly.

Wow, RIP Mr. Kyle. True American Hero.

And he was shot at a shooting range. This is all too convenient for the anit's.

So the guy had PTSD and they brought him to a gun range? I'm confused

Chris helped vets with PTSD deal with it through the shooting sports.

PTSD doesn't mean someone is bat **** crazy, it usually manifests as depression and chemical dependence.

He may have been, but not all with PTSD are. Having PTSD doesn't equal crazy.

Chris had been volunteering his time to help Marine Corps veterans suffering from PTSD and mentoring them.

Saying all vets with PTSD are crazy is like saying all gun owners are murders.
